I noticed the orange color in 2002 when I painted my C with PPG Omni 71310, the 2150 "equivalent". But, it seems the C is redder than the next two tractors I have done, which have more of an orange tint. I later bought a quart of CaseIH 2150 to try and match the color. To my eyes PPG 71310 and 2150 are exactly the same shade. As to the red, on the back of most PPG labels it is called "organic". I have had the paint supplier add more red (organic) and less orange the last time I painted, which was a couple of years ago. Didn't make a lot of difference, so when I do it again I will probably make the change more like 20%, instead of the 10% I tried. But, I have kind of accepted the orange tint. Looks a lot better in the sun than under the flouresent lights in my shop. Since my tractors are inside 99% of the time, I have not noticed it getting darker with age, that may apply to the acrylic modified alkyd enamel that the CaseIH version is, but not to PPG acrylic urethane. I may also try PPG 70019, which is IH 50, not used by IH after 1949. The guy mixing may be part of the problem, however he has to make a big mistake or a lot of cumulative small mistakes to make a difference. Basically I don't think the old 2150 exists any more. So, you just have to experiment with the toners.
